BLUETOOTH CONVERGENCE SOLUTION

Like using your cell phone at home but don't like carrying it around? Now you can make and receive cell phone calls though your multi-handset home phone with the Bluetooth-powered Panasonic Link-to-Cell. Link-to-Cell harnesses the power of Bluetooth to combine the freedom of your cell phone and the convenience of a home phone. By linking your cell phone to the Bluetooth-powered Panasonic Link-to-Cell, you can make or receive calls on all compatible Panasonic home phone handsets. Don't want to be without your cell phone's phonebook? No problem. With Link-to-Cell's Phonebook Transfer feature, you can transfer up to 600 names and numbers from your cell phone to the built-in handset directory via Bluetooth. Link-to-Cell also features Bluetooth headset connectivity so you can keep the conversation going and your hands free. Perfect for those times when you're talking but need to walk around your office or home, open drawers, flip through files or write.

DECT 6.0 PLUS

DECT Plus technology takes the superb sound quality and outstanding range of DECT 6.0 phones to a whole new level. By increasing the frequency of error correction by up to 80x, the transmission quality is improved and the phone's range is extended. Engineered to work in 1.9GHz frequency, our DECT 6.0 phones won't conflict with common wireless devices such as 2.4GHz routers, wireless keyboards and mice, microwave ovens and other household items. And because it's digital, you'll enjoy long range and clear sound while deterring eavesdropping.

TALKING CALLER ID

Now you can hear who's calling from across the room without having to get up. Using text-to-speech technology. Panasonic phones featuring Talking Caller ID that announces caller ID information in between rings. What could be more convenient?

INTELLIGENT ECO MODE

This feature automatically lowers the power consumption when you're using the handset close to the base unit. Not only does it extend the available talk time, it's good for the environment. When less power is used by the handset to communicate with the base unit, battery life is prolonged which results in less frequent charging and can result in fewer batteries in landfills.

TONE EQUALIZER

Everyone hears differently. To maximize clarity or accommodate hearing loss, Panasonic added Call Tone Control to select 2011 models. This exclusive feature actually lets you control the bass, mid-range or treble tones in a caller's voice for maximum clarity.

SILENT MODE

Now you can program each handset to ring or not at your discretion. For example, before you go to sleep, set the bedside handset to Silent Mode so that it won't ring for the duration of your slumber. In the meantime, the handset in another room is unaffected, and rings as usual.

NON-SLIP HANDSET

Multi-tasking while you are talking on a cordless handset whether it's jotting down a quick note, pouring a glass of juice or folding a few pieces of laundry is often difficult due to the tendency of the handset to slip as you cradle it on your shoulder. The rubberized grip helps prevent slipping, making it easier and more comfortable to cradle the phone when you want to work with your hands.

Now answer all phones from anywhere in the houseI love this phone system. It works seamlessly with all three: 1) the home phone; 2) my cell phone and 3) my wife's cellphone. We can answer any of the three phone numbers from anywhere around the house. I was skeptical of the functionality but when I started using the system, was extremely and pleasantly surprised by the ease of setup and zero problems. I HIGHLY recommend to anyone and everyone.

doesn't correctly transfer phone bookThe feature to transfer the telephone book from my cell phone to the Panasonic phone is flawed. On my iphone 4 none of the numbers have a "1" before the area code and the iphone inserts the "1" automatically. The iphone works well.
Upon transfer to the Panasonic phone via bluetooth none of the numbers will correctly dial and I receive an error message on the phone line that says "please insert a 1 before the area code." So I will have to manually edit all 456 numbers in my Panasonic phonebook to insert the "1'

How do I copy the contacts on my cell phone to my Panasonic phone?

Please note the following before you start copying your cell phone contacts to your Panasonic phone:

If a copied entry has 2 or more phone numbers, each phone number (6 max.) is stored as a separate entry with the same name.

Your cell phones Bluetooth is turned on If a phonebook entry includes additional data such as a picture, that entry may fail to copy to the base unit.

If you receive a call while copying phonebook entries, the copying procedure stops. Try again after finishing the call.

For other cellular phones (not registered), you need to search for and select the base unit. The base unit PIN (default: "0000") may be required. The entries being copied are displayed on the handset.

Note: Phone book entries that have additional data such as pictures, special ringtones attached to them may fail to transfer to the base when using Link2Cell. The transfer operation will stop at that instance.
